Se connecterI'm Lilith. My biggest trauma used to be my dad forgetting to book my Santorini villa, I know, the absolute horror of it all. I had the Porsche, the diamonds, the designer wardrobe that took up two whole rooms, and Jax, the perfect boyfriend who looked at me like I hung the moon. I thought I was the main character. Plot twist? I was wrong. Turns out I wasn't being raised as the Alpha's darling. I was being fattened up for slaughter. My parents didn't love me, they were just my wardens, keeping me soft and pretty and completely clueless. And that Gala everyone kept whispering about? Not my debutante ball. An auction. I got sold to the Triad like a piece of art, like a handbag, like I was something to own. The Triad. Three terrifying, bloodthirsty Alphas who make the monsters under your bed look like stuffed animals. They need me for some twisted prophecy I never signed up for, and they don't care what I want. Obviously. And the cherry on top of this hot-mess express? Jax held the door open for them. My perfect boyfriend counted his money while they dragged me away. They think they can break the spoiled princess. They think I'm just a "Spawn of Lilith" meant to be served on a silver platter. Soft and sweet and easy to swallow. Here's what they don't get. When you take away a girl's credit cards, her freedom, her whole damn life? The monster underneath is way more expensive to deal with than a few Birkins ever were.
Voir plusLilith's POV I have absolutely nothing to say.For the first time in my entire life, my mouth is completely empty of words. No bratty comeback. No demand to speak to a manager. No shrieking about my father or my money or my ruined dress.Just silence.Because there are hundreds of glowing red eyes in the darkness of this garage, and they're all looking at me.Sloane stands in front of them like a queen welcoming her guests. Her red lips are curved into that smile....that horrible, beautiful smile that used to belong to my friend. The friend who held my hair back when I drank too much champagne. The friend who told me my ex-boyfriend Jax was a loser who didn't deserve me."You look confused, Princess." She tilts her head, and the motion is so familiar it makes my stomach turn. "Did you really think I was here for you?"My knees shake. Malakai still has me slung over his shoulder like a sack of garbage, but I feel his body tense beneath me. His hand tightens on the back of my thigh."L
Lilith's POV The door slams shut behind us and the sound echoes through the room like a gunshot.My chest heaves. My knuckles are white as I grip the torn silk of my gown….the gown that cost more than most people's rent, the gown that's now ruined because of them.Three pairs of eyes stare at me in the dim light. Vane, the biggest one, is looming way too close. Roman is circling somewhere behind me like a predator playing with his food. And Malakai…Malakai….is just standing there by the window, his silver eyes fixed on my lips like he wants to devour me.No. No, no, no.I'm terrified. Absolutely terrified. My knees are shaking so bad I can barely stand. But terror doesn't shut me up. It never has. If anything, it makes my mouth run faster."Don't you dare touch me with those filthy hands, Vane." The words rip out of me before I can stop them. My voice is high, sharp, demanding...the voice I use on servants who disappoint me. "Do you have any idea how much this dress cost? My father w
Lilith's POVMy lips are still tingling from his thumb. It feels like a taste. As though I'm something to be sampled.And now I'm waiting for his heart to stop.“ Please, please, please let it work” I pray silently, my lips pressed tightly, eyes desperately scanning him for even the tiniest expression. But Malakai doesn't fall.His grip on my jaw tightens instead, it is bone crushing and relentless. I gasp, my fingers flying up to claw at his wrist but he doesn't even flinch. His breathing hitches, then turns into something else. A heavy, wet rattle that sounds like drowning.Oh no."Lilith..." His voice is a low, dangerous rasp. I feel it vibrate through his palm and into my skull. "What. Did. You. Fucking. Do?"My heart is hammering against my ribs so hard I think they might crack. "It... it was supposed to make you sleep." I can barely get the words out. His grip is stealing my air. "Sloane said….""Sloane lied, you pampered little bitch."Roman's voice cuts through the room like
Lilith's POV The sound of running water fills everywhere, echoing in the bathroom. Steam fills the air until it's almost heavy and thick, the scent of expensive jasmine clogging my nostrils…the kind my mother loved. But no matter how much perfume is poured, it still can't reduce the bitter, metallic stench of blood at the back of my nostrils….my mother's blood.At this moment, I feel empty, as though my consciousness has floated elsewhere, staring down at the maids as they mindlessly scrubbed the hell out of my skin. They don't even try to be gentle just keep scrubbing my legs so hard, the skin bruises, turning bright red. And each time they scrub the spot where her blood touched me earlier, I subconsciously flinched, the urge to scream out until I can't anymore rise. But unfortunately, my throat feels tight, as though I swallowed broken glass. I just gaze lifelessly at the mirror, my eyes lingering on the black diamonds choker. It still sits right on my neck; a wicked reminder
